Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Reach UP unique?

Reach UP is the only magazine publication of its kind for — not about — marginalized women. (Reach UP is a member of Evangelical Press Association whose Executive Director has confirmed this fact.) Some of the articles may be written by at-risk women with the hope that their experiences will help another woman in a similar circumstance.

Reach UP is faith-based and all articles spring from a Christian world-view. But all articles are not devotional in nature.

Reach UP was developed after years of being in New York’s inner city. As such, we have a perspective that is fresh, respectful, empowering and embracing city culture (and quite a few other sub-cultures).

Where is Reach UP magazine distributed?

Reach UP Magazine is read and distributed in the U. S., Canada, Mexico and wherever the internet can be accessed. Because of the high cost of shipping, we do not send hard copies to other countries besides the United States. We freely encourage the printing and distribution in other countries.  For a partial listing, see Others Using RU.

Who can submit articles for Reach UP?

Reach UP prefers to choose articles written by men and women who have a firsthand understanding of life that’s been challenging. Challenging circumstances can be defined as living below the line of poverty, living in government housing, on welfare, in prison, having been abused whether physically, emotionally or otherwise. Some articles are reprinted because of the topic. For more details, see Submitting Articles.

How can I advertise in Reach UP?
